A recently developed computer program for three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of SPECT images has been employed to study myocardial perfusion in coronaropathic patients using MIBI-99mTc or 201Tl chloride. By subtracting after-stress from at-rest 3D reconstructed images, even small ischemic lesions could be located in the myocardium, with good morphological definition. The general characteristics of the method and some clinical results are here presented.
